Agenda

• Application Deployment with Oracle Virtual Assembly

• Infrastructure Cloud Management with Oracle EM12c

• Dell | Oracle joint effort around Infrastructure Cloud –Infrastructure certifications –Cloud Architecture Design and Configuration

–Creating Application Assemblies with OVAB

–Deploying Assembly in a Virtual Environment –Deploying Assembly in a Self Service Cloud

• Q&A

■ Do you know that Cloud Computing is now in a significantly mature stage of it’s

evolution?

■ Has your enterprise already adopted Cloud Computing as a paradigm: If NOT, Why NOT? If NOT, does this mean that you are behind the curve in terms of new and emerging technologies and paradigms?

■ If you’re already on the cloud bandwagon, what are the major challenges that you faced/are currently facing?

■ Have you factored the general strategy and recent series of announcements by Oracle around the general areas covered by Cloud Computing within your enterprise approach? Are you ready ?

■ Join the IOUG Cloud Computing SIG online at www.ioug.org/cloud = The

independent non-biased forum for technical interchange around Oracle-centric Cloud Computing

Cloud Adoption within your enterprise: The Big Questions

Application Deployment with Oracle Virtual Assembly

Deployment with Oracle Virtual Assembly

Traditional Application Deployment process • Multiple Steps including Hardware, OS, Prerequisites, Application

installation/configuration • Highly skilled manual work, time consuming and error prone • Duplicated efforts and very hard to automate • Hardly adapted for a cloud environment where an automatic provisioning

process is needed Oracle VM: Application-Driven Virtualization

• Applications running on virtual machines • VM template: pre-built, pre-configured virtual machine with OS +software stack • Oracle published VM templates for most Oracle products for download • You can create your own Oracle VM templates for your application • Easy to deploy through VM Manager and Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c.

Deployment with Oracle Virtual Assembly Oracle Virtual Assembly

• Appliance: a single software component and its local execution : environment, for example, database +OS

• Assembly: a collection of interrelated software appliances that are automatically configured to work together, for example, multiple tier application: Weblogic server + Database.

Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder Studio creates assemblies

• The tool to capture the software configurations and package to software appliances and connect them to form assemblies.

Deploy Assembly on Virtual Environment

• Through Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder Deployer

Through Oracle VM Manager/Oracle Enterprise Manager by exporting the assembly achieve file VM manager

Deployed in an infrastructure cloud through Enterprise Manager 12c Self Service Portal (will be discussed in next session)

Infrastructure Cloud and Oracle EM12c

Oracle Infrastructure Cloud managed with EM12c • Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Cloud Deployment Model: Users request IaaS services, pre-packed assemblies are used to deploy guest Virtual Machines with OS and database software and middleware software. • Enterprise Manager 12c is used to model Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Pre-created virtual assemblies and templates created with OVAB and stored in software Library Users request IaaS services through EM12c Self Service portal Iaas Service is automatically deployed with the virtual assemblies and templates

Cloud Architecture Design and configuration

Register VM Manager on Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c.

– Configure Secure TCP(TCPS) on VM Manager host (#1456338.1)

– Use tcps and

port 54322 port

for VM Manager

Registration

Cloud Architecture Design and configuration

Creating Assembly with Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder(OVAB)

Creating Assembly with OVAB Configure Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder (OVAB) Environment

— Prepare Oracle Linux server 5U7 32 bit (or Virtual Machine) — Meet the pre-installation requirements • Load JeOS image, Open-OVF , OL_base_images: ovab software:

• Install and configure OVAB ./runInstaller as oracle user

Creating Assembly with OVAB Create virtual assemblies for reference systems

— Introspect a reference system to create an assembly — Capture template and assembly archive — Export assembly achieve

Creating Assembly with OVAB • Create an assembly by Introspecting a reference system

– Turn off firewall on the reference host: /etc/init.d/iptables stop – Start OVAB studio GUI: ./abstudio.sh – Start “Create Assembly wizard “ for creation of an assembly

• Introspect an appliance using the reference system

– Specify file sets to capture

Creating Assembly with OVAB – Complete file sets capture

– Add additional appliance – Edit an assembly

• Create templates and archive assembly

Creating Assembly with OVAB – Complete

template creation and Assembly Archiving

Assembly Archive: mywlstest.ova file in OVAB host

Export Assembly archive by copying this file to other locations Copy an Assembly Archive: .ova file

Deploy Assembly in Virtual Environment

Deploy Assembly in Virtual Environment Deploy Assembly on Virtual Environment

– Through Oracle VM Manager or Enterprise Manager 12c

Load Assembly into Repository Copy the assembly archive to OMS server: /var/www/html/0157

Deploy Assembly in EM12c Self Service Portal

Deploy Assembly in EM12c Self Service Portal • Deploy assembly in Infrastructure Cloud

• Workflow – Cloud Administrator to setup Cloud structure: VM server, storage, Network, server pool, Software library, deployment – Self Service Administrator to setup the Self service portal Setup:

• Load the assembly into software library • Publish the assembly and make it available for self service users • Define VM seize, assign Quota to users/roles, define access boundary

– Self Service Users to use Self Service Portal to request service • Deploy Applications through templates/assembly by requesting

the application virtual machines • Managing and monitoring of virtual machines and resource usages
